Review by Rachelle Anslyn

Album Review: This Land by Little Joe And The Gentlemen Alright, let’s talk about This Land, the rock album from Little Joe And The Gentlemen. These guys hail from the US, and they’ve put out something raw, real, and unapologetically rocking under the Fat label. Shoutout to Phil York, the engineer who helped bring this thing to life—props to him for keeping it tight but not too polished. Sometimes you just want music that feels like a kick in the gut in the best way possible, ya know? First up, the title track, “This Land.” It’s one of those songs that grabs you by the collar and doesn’t let go. The riff is dirty and driving, kinda like someone revving an old Harley at 2 a.m. The lyrics feel grounded, almost like a shout-out to roots and place, but without getting all preachy about it. You can tell these dudes aren’t trying to reinvent the wheel—they’re just here to make you nod your head and maybe spill your beer while you’re at it. Then there’s “Stagger Lee.” Oh man, how do you even mess with a classic like that? Somehow, they pull it off. They don’t overthink it; instead, they lean into the grit and chaos of the story. There’s this moment near the middle where everything drops out except for this killer bassline, and honestly, I wasn’t ready for it. That little twist stuck with me because it’s simple but so effective. Feels like they took a legend and gave it their own stamp without losing what makes it iconic. You might notice the production isn’t super slick, but honestly, that works in its favor. It’s got this lived-in vibe, like hearing a band play in your buddy’s garage after a few rounds. It’s refreshing in a world full of overproduced nonsense. So yeah, This Land ain’t perfect, but it doesn’t need to be. It’s straight-up fun, and sometimes that’s exactly what you’re looking for. Honestly, if I had to sum it up? Listening to this album feels like finding a crumpled-up twenty-dollar bill in your jeans—you weren’t expecting much, but damn, are you glad you found it.
